In the words of Martin Luther King Jr...

" The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convience, but where he stands in times of challenge."

In our fourth grade words we think this quote says,
"The greatest way to tell what a person is like is not how they act when things are simple and comfortable, but how they act when things are hard."

This quote really shows perserverance!

Below you will find photos that we found on Flickr.com that we thought represented this quote.

    I really thought the man running in the marothon perservered because he had robotic legs and was ahead of everybody in the marothon, he must have perservered just to participate in the marothon.

    The man without the legs must be persevering alot. I feel bad for him since he has no legs. Poor guy! Good thing that that he's still winning.

    I wish someone would have moved the plant. Roots and everything! Plus, someone should picked up the trash. It's just sad to see a single plant growing next to concreat with garbage all around it!
